Host: Dr. Graciela B. Raga – Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.
Dr. Graciela B. Raga from the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico delivered the IGAC-iCACGP skills workshop on “the challenges of oral presentations: Perspectives from an old-timer” and provided valuable tips for ECRs to prepare for conferences and seminars. This included the need to develop a narrative for the presentation, ways of making/stressing a point, rehearsing and timing correctly, and the specifics of lecturing vs presenting. At the end of the workshop, Graciela answered several questions, some related to virtual presentations and others to keep an audience engaged and dealing with distracted people. You can watch the recording of the workshop below.
